Topslip

Into the heart of Anamalai Tiger Reserve

Best time

December – May

Ideal stay

2 days

Altitude

~800 m

Topslip lies deep inside the Anamalai Tiger Reserve, where old teak forests meet open grassy hills. Once a place where felled timber was slid down the slopes, it is now one of the best wildlife escapes in South India.

Watch elephants at the nearby camp, spot sambar, gaur and Nilgiri tahr from the safari trail, and sleep in forest-department stays among the trees. Topslip is for travellers who want real jungle, birdsong at dawn and a break from the noise. Safari and stay bookings need advance planning, which we handle for you.
